Salve Praetor Pompeia Cornelia Strabo,
thank you for your very kind words. As acting Praefectus for Egressus, I am trying to promote Nova Roma.
I thought this could be a nice way to do it !!
Respectfully,

I just wanted to state my personal appreciation for all the wonderful
work that Sexte Apolloni is doing in the production of his online
newsletter and the neat Ecard project.

It has obviously worked for me, and I think it is a great way to send
a Roman Bouquet to another person.

There are some kinks in the system, being that it doesn't seem to be
working for everyone, but I am sure this will be amended in time.

Computers can be so contrary at times, no?

Anyway, Ave Apolloni!!

Bene valete,
Pompeia Cornelia

Salvete, Mani Villi Limitane et omnes.

There's no END to the rockage going on with the debian distro! I
recommend all out there using linux to switch to debian, if they're not
using it already. And those of you who doesn't have linux yet, get it!
It's even available for Mac, and most likely whatever system you happen
to be using. Warning: Mac users with OSX, don't bother. You're already
using a variant of unix, so feel proud of yourselves and remember to
look down on those still using Tiny$oft products.

Whoops, I went hardcore again. Bad me. Won't happen to often in the
future, I promise.

Valete, Titus Octavius Pius.

I must agree with the rating below for legion...I've been anticipating the release for a long time and am rather disappointed in the game itself. It's great to run on the laptop, but as far as challenging, it really isn't all that. Personally the same concept would've been much better with a proven engine such as the Age of Empires II engine, and would allow much more refined play. Also the lack of a multiplayer aspect is a detriment to the overall game. Perhaps they can come up with the fixes and release Legion II. Hopefully it'll be better than this one.

coming out with a few new games, Hearts of Iron (a WWII game), Crusader
Kings (covering from 1066-1453).

Overall I have heard lukewarm reviews about Legions, but soon an patch
will be released that should fix many of the problems that individuals
seem to be having. Check that website often for updates and patches.
